Abstract
Abstract A mounting assembly for a bulbholder formed by a C-shaped yoke member having spaced end arms, and a pair of spring support subassemblies resiliently supporting opposite ends of the bulbholder from the end arms. Each spring sub-assembly is adjustable relative to the yoke end arm so that the bulbholder may be aimed upwardly or downwardly to project the light as desired.
